USAF Pilots Wings
The USAF wings came with a job lot of mainly British badges of the WW2 period,
On the reverse they are marked Sterling J A Myers & Co Can any one give me a valuation please ? I have seen prices between £25 and £125 also am I correct in thinking they are WW2 period? Thanks for looking. |

Those are a very nice pin back pair of wings, and very possibly what are termed "presentation" wings - i.e. those that are given upon graduation of flight school. I have my fathers and they are the only pair in his 25+ plus years of serving in he USAAF and USAF. You can see his wings here.
